Nails by Matty Mullins 🎵
What do you think kept Jesus up on the cross? For someone who had the power to stop everything that was going on, something else kept him up on the cross. This beautiful song says that it wasn't the nails.
Where was the army of angels When the crowd yelled out crucify And how could a last breath be taken By the one who's breath becomes life
All my guilt All my shame The nails that pierced you bore my name The fathers face Turned away Nothing made sense that day
But now I see It was your love for me Holding you on that tree It wasn't the nails
You chose the death of a sinner To give me the life of a saint And you left the heights of the heavens To show me the depths of your grace
You took my guilt You took my shame Now resurrection bears my name By your blood I've been saved Nothing could stand in your way
Now I see It was your love for me Holding you on that tree It wasn't the nails Cause with one word You could've stopped the hurt But it was your love, your grace, your mercy Holding you there It wasn't the nails It wasn't the nails
No one could take What you chose to give You gave your life to save my soul Freely you died So I could live Jesus, you wanted me to know It wasn't the nails
Oh, now I see It was your love for me Holding you on that tree It wasn't the nails Cause with one word You could've stopped the hurt But it was your love, your grace, your mercy Holding you there It was always your love, your grace, your mercy Nothing compares It wasn't the nails It wasn't the nails No No It wasn't the nails ♪ ♫ ♪
